I moved to Boca Raton 4 years ago.
House prices have become insane, probably up by 3x since then.
We have 1000 families a day moving here and God knows how many illegal workers.
We are a "right to work" state, that is labor unions have it tough here, we have no car inspection, and no state income tax.
Democrats stay away.

Also:
It is very easy to get a weapon to protect your home, the girls are the best and dress minimally, and we have sunshine 3000 hours a year.
On the other hand, it is unrelentingly hot for 5 months from June to the end of October, Hurricanes are dreadful and we have all of those blue hairs from the Bronx and Brooklyn NY that are a danger on the road and a danger to democracy at the voting booth.

You got in just before the prices shot up here. We got into our home here at the end of '99. The prices have tripled since then.
How'd you make out with the hurricanes last year? Hope you didn't have Poe. We just finished our repairs in time for the season. Here's to hoping it's a waste of time.
Florida is a slice of paradise where I'm concerned. Beautiful weather year round and time enough to enjoy it. I don't see the demand for this lifestyle dying off any time too soon. Even with the insurance increases, Florida is still going to be a fiscally attractive place to live.
